A/N: Finally! The start of the story! It's short, I know, but you will get to know how Alec's wings are. I hope you like it. I already have part of chapter two written in my notebook. I just need to write it here and fix it. Help? Please? And once again, I want to tell you I accept propmts and requests for anything. Also, I'm thinking of writing some destiel and/or some fic in second person (one shot, probably). What do you think? Would you like to interact with your favorite characters?

On with the story!

Tired curiosity.

These wings would never fade away...

Magnus was still gawking by the bathroom's door. Alec's reflection stared back at him. Shock as visible on his features. He started to hyperventilate. No, this wasn't happening. Was this his imagination? An ilusion from the poison? He knew it wasn't, but he blinked anyways. Once. Twice. Nothing.

The warlock stared at his boyfeiend wide-eyed.

They stayed in silence.

Alec slowly reached a hand and placed it on his right wing and winced. The wings were real and sore. He pulled back his hand but it felt sticky. He looked at it. Dry blood. His curiosity slowly rose higher and higher. Where had it come from? He wondered if he had hurt his wings somehow.

Unconciously, said wings stretched. They were black and small, about the size of his forearm. Strangely they had no feathers. As they stretched more, he noticed something peered out from on top of them... It looked like a small horn.

Before he could take a good look, he felt a cramp on his left wing. Both wings quickly crumbled together once again, relaxing. By the angel, they hurt.

Oh... So they needed exercise.

Alec turned to Magnus and noticed his face was now a strange mix of curiosity and concern. But there was something else -tiredness, maybe. That seemed plausible since it was still 3 a.m.

The teen glanced back at his reflection and saw that his eyes were tired, too. That was weird for a moment, since he usually worked just fine with few hours of sleep. But maybe the spell had taken too much of his energy.

Sleepiness soon overwhelmed him.

He realized both of them were too tired for this. The initial shock had worn off, and his curiosity could be fulfilled later.

Slowly, Alec tried to move his wings, stretching them a little and relaxing them over and over. Once they stopped hurting so much, he looked at Magnus. "Maybe we can talk about this later...?"

The warlock nodded, thankful for some more hours of sleep.

They both walked into the bedroom once again. They laid in bed together. Alec was careful not to let his wings touch the bed so the sheets wouldn't get stained. Magnus softly hugged him from the front.

And they woke up to the sound of someone banging the door.

Grunting, both lovers sat up on the bed. The knocks stopped for a second and started once again, this time louder. Magnus looked at the clock tiredly -it was 7 a.m.

"Magnus Bane, we know you are in there! And Alec too! Open the freaking door!"

Jace? What was he doing here? Alec glanced to his side. Magnus mirrored his own confused look.

"Magnus! Open the door!" So Izzy was here too?

The warlock stood up and walked to the living room. Alec started following until a sudden pain in his back reminded him why he couldn't. He couldn't explain his wings to his siblings if not even he knew what was going on. He decided to stay in the hallway, just to be able to overhear the conversation.

"What do you want, goldilocks?" Magnus asked after opening the door.

Alec heard the other Lightwoods' combat boots as they stomped through the door. Magnus closed the door.

"Where's Alec?"

"Sleeping," Was Magnus' only answer. "Why do you ask? You saw him just yesterday. He was pretty worn out and so am I."

"What do you mean by yesterday?" Izzy sounded confused.

Alec tried to make a sense of the question. It had been yesterday when Magnus had saved him. His brother ans sister had been there with Clary.

"Yes, yesterday when I put the spell on Alec, remember?"

Alec was sure he could picture the confused glances his siblings shared with each other.

"Magnus..." Izzy said cautiously, "that was three days ago."

Things suddenly clicked on Alec's mind...

But they still didn't make much sense.
